Well it was time for the end of the month Westside Convergence which normally means it is time for the MURPH. With so many MURPH options available on Monday the AOQ’s decided on a normal BC at The Hollow. The only problem was that there wasn’t a Q signed-up, so YHC stepped in late Friday afternoon to Q. YHC wanted to get the PAX thinking about what Memorial Day really means so he found a tribute WO.

Weather 70′ and HUMID

YHC explained that today’s BC would consist of a tribute workout to help us remember and pay tribute to those that left us too early. Today’s tribute workout was LOREDO. This workout was in memory of US Army Staff Sergent Edwardo Leredo, 34, of Houston, TX assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, based in Fort Bragg, NC. He was killed on June 24, 2010 in Afghanistan when insurgents attacked his unit with an improvised explosive device. He left behind a wife and 3 kids.
LOREDO
6 Rounds
24 Squats, 24 Merkins, 24 Walking-Lunges, and a lap around the bus loop.
YHC thought this would take a little longer than it did so he had to improvise. Mosey to the other side of the parking lot to where the light poles line the parking lot next to Old Farm Road. YHC placed a cone between the light poles (about half way) The Pain Train is what filled the rest of our time.
15 Merkins at the 1st light pole. Burpee Broad Jump to the cone. 15 Merkins. Run back to the start. 15 Merkins, Burpee Broad Jump to the cone, 15 Merkins, Bear Crawl to the next light pole, 15 Merkins, Run back to the start (we were suppose to perform 15 merkins at each light pole and cone on the way back, but there was a lot of modifying) Rinse and repeat this for a total of 3 light poles.
Mosey back to the Flag.
